This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Fake: X4 is not a videogame, it's rehab for crazy german accountants
Gay: weird, therefore queer, therefore gay
Screw you, I like my singleplayer-spreadsheets-in-space as a nice distraction from playing MMO-spreadsheets-in-space. Also, I'm Dutch, you ass.
Dutch => Deutsch => German
Same difference
It'd be nice if they let me keep my jumpdrives though, now I have to do icky things like logistics and having multiple fleets defending multiple gates
And manually babysitting any fleet you end up putting in that one Argon sector where the Xenon invade like clockwork
Hatikvah's Choice? I know that sector like the back of my hand :c
(though it belongs to Hatikvah Free League, iirc)
Yeah, that place. I made the mistake of "conquering" the xenon sector and having to deal with all the assaults with my own ships. If I'm not around manually piloting, those Q ships will destroy at least one of my destroyers per incursion. I've also learned the hard way that small craft are only good as cannon fodder, a swarm of 30x can get shot down to 7 in 5 minutes.
I think the simulation logic was changed somewhat with recent updates, because fighters are (in my run) really hard to ignore – enemy fighters hinder my heavies' ability to run away, and my own fighters somehow kick ass against the former as long as I micro-manage them to fight fighters instead of the Torment Nexus itself.
Unrelated note, regarding the Hatikvah's Choice front:

HAZARDOUS REGION DETECTED
Am german. Went to an economics school (Fachabitur) and fucking hated accounting. I love stellaris though, if only actual accounting would be that fun
